A Little Poetry.....Name Style

Hey all! In working with our poems we made descriptive poems about ourselves using our names! The kids may have struggled a little coming up with describing words that started with specific letters. However, just like I knew they would, they perservered and made some awesome poems! Have fun reading our first grade acrostic masterpieces!

Our Descriptive Poems

Hey all!  This week our class has been focusing on writing poetry. Up first: Descriptive Poems. Now you may be saying, "Ummmm Messick, is that a type of poem?" Well let me tell you, "Yes, yes, it is!". The kids loved being able to pick their own topic and then think of rhyming words as they described their chosen content. They were tasked with choosing something from our classroom. As you scroll through you may notice some Avengers related topics. Rest assure these are apart of our room. I know! Our room is pretty awesome! Without further delay..... Here are our poems!

Hey all! Today I am presenting at the Little Apple Tech Fest put on our school district. For my presentation I explained some blogger basics as well as blogging tips. I then tasked my session participants with creating this post in groups, partners, or individually. They had to post about something they've learned, something they are looking forward to, or some piece of tech to share.. Here goes!

We learned how to start our own classroom blogs.  It is important to watermark pics to link back to your blog and also to go get parent permission to post.  We are excited to start teaching our students how to become bloggers!

Hi Friends!
Blogging as a classroom community connection is AMAZING!!  Kids + Teacher = Parental Involvement!  :)

Interested Educators! Little Apple Tech Fest is a great way for educators to engage in learning. Ms. Messick is successful at sharing the blogging process with educators!!  Lets Go Blog!! 

Today we've learned a lot so far! We learned the basics of how to make a blog. We need to come up with a creative title and then just learn as we go...

Today we learned about Blogging. The first step is to decide your purpose. Step number two, get parent permission. The third step is to figure out how to get students involved. Can't wait to create my own and get parents and students alike excited about my class!!

The great thing about blogging is it allows for flexibility. It gives both individuals and groups a voice and allows everyone to be part of the action. Remember to make it interesting, fun, and label as you go along.

Hear Ye! Hear Ye! We have wonderful & exciting news. Today we were introduced to a fun site called Blogger. This site will help bring students together to work on their social skills through blogging & photographs. We look forward to blogging with our students. Check on us when you can!

How great did they do?!?!?! I am so glad to see so many educators interested in blogging. I can't wait to follow the blogs they will create!
